Gun Safety

Listen up now kiddies!

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Gun Safety

Post by Laura Ingalls »

I thought I would post this amusing video for all of you. :yes: Pay careful attention as the police officer proclaims himself the only one in the room able to handle a gun. :yes:

Video

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but you mods can move it if you see fit. ;)

He kept it together pretty well for being shot!

I can handle guns. My folks have 20+ guns. My dad and I used to shoot his pistols when I was a kid and he bought me a .22 rifle for my 9th b-day.

I can use a real gun, but I just use an air soft gun for shooting with.

Not really, you just hear the shot and see him limp. Theres no blood/gore or anything. So go watch Saving Private Ryan.

;) I'll make a note of that, Shad. =p

I've never shot a loaded gun.... For all the avid interest I have in them, I've only seen a real gun, held it, and it wasn't loaded when I shot. Yay standardpolicepistols.

I did shoot a real gun once, and I hit the target, I think. My dad loaded the gun, but I got to shoot it. Not something that I have any intention of doing on a regular basis, but it was fun once.

that's too bad :(

I have a couple of .30-30 rifles. Shot one the other day. I got to hold a .45 Colt Government model pistol once, and a couple of others, I forgot what they were, but that was the one I liked best. I also tried on a Thompson Contender... those things are weird :-s

Anyone here held an AK-47? \:D/

Ouch! That poor guy! I can't believe how cool he was, though. He was like "Is everyone alright? Are you alright?" when he was obviously in pain... Woah!
